Today, Hofner Verythin through a Fredric Klon, Belcat Tremolo, Mooer Ana Echo & the trusty Akai Headrush into Le Champ. Has made for a fun morning.

So many sigh-inducing comments in this thread - anyone who thinks slurs on this level are cool seriously needs to check themself, irrespective of their own sexual preferences. Back on topic, I judge anyone who has a ton of pedals & mounts their tuner sideways to "save space", ignoring the fact that ...

So...la Bellas arrived and I fitted them yesterday morning (I got the round wound set with a 0.95 gauge E string). Happy to report that this worked a treat. A combo of better strings & the staytrem bridge has really kicked shit up a notch. Really playable instrument now!

Have just ordered some La Bella round wounds for mine. Will report back on how these are once they arrive & I try them. Stock E string on these is jokesville though.

Thanks guys, glad you like it.

I've just been using a bass gig bag for mine too. Seems to do the job just fine. Just finished up my 1st recording using the Bass VI too:

It doesn't make much of an appearance 'til about halfway through the track, but makes itself known when it comes in!

Exactly

Hahah....the tone of their email basically insinuates that they've done plenty of Black Hat SEO in the past, ended up being penalised by Google with algorithm changes & now are scraping the internet for any links to them & auto-firing out these kind of comms.

Thing is, this site is contextually ...

if ur not gonna be constructive u can just leave lmfao
OK, I'll be constructive for you..I have 2 points:
1). There's a key 2 to the right of the M key on your keyboard. It's called a "full stop". Please learn to use it. This stops anyone trying to get a handle on what you are on about getting a ...

How many guitars is that now this week? I wish I had your cash.
We all only get 1 pair of hands though, so it has to be a law of diminishing returns at some point? Anyway...back on topic, nice vi. I'm seriously loving my squier version, even more so since I upgraded the bridge to a staytrem. Enjoy ...

Well...in some sort of maverick mavouvre, I slapped a pre-order and deposit down on my Coronado today (black cherry burst since you ask dear reader). Psyched!

Could be wrong on this, but I think the competition series (both original & reissue) are CAR, as are the Pawnshop ones with the WRHBs.

Firstly, welcome. Secondly, yes. Fender make pretty much every guitar in this colour. In a way, I'm pretty happy that I don't like it more as a colour. Fender's constantly boring stock colours for most models have stopped me giving them a shitload of money over the years.

I can't wait for the Coronado to drop....excited to see whether there will be any solid colour schemes on this (although I'll gladly take a tobacco burst if not). Fender have gone up in my estimation as a result of this (I still think Squier have been on a massive roll of late though, what with the ...

Secrets to ShieldsTone 101...

Step 1). Set up a fuckload of pedals (brand / settings unimportant - at least 7 or 8 must be either reverb, delay or fuzz)
Step 2). Tip a small bottle of amyl nitrate into a tupperware box. Place in front of pedalboard
Step 3). Turn amp up full
Step 4). Stomp on all ...

It says "original paint", but I suspect it isn't. It looks like someone put red over the original blue. Still, that's a really good price for a '75 Musicmaster body.
I came to the same conclusion looking at the paint on this...To be honest, I think that anyone who refins over Daphne Blue must be a ...

If this actually pans out, will be bagging one of these for sure. Squier are on fucking fire at the moment - if Fender were even 10% as on it in terms of putting out models that I would actually want to own, I'd still be some sort of fully paid up Fender fanboy.

Hate to say it, as I'm normally ...

Hey Shortscale,

After years of bands etc., I've finally got to the point where I'm done with an album where everything is played & programmed by me. I've called the project High Towers & Deep Wells....it's lots of normal instrumentation (guitar, bass vocals, piano etc.), fused with some electronics ...
